How to add your UltraViolet movies to Movies Anywhere

Movies Anywhere is Disney’s attempt to merge all of those digital movie services where you purchase content into one place. You don’t have to watch all of your movies in Movies Anywhere. Instead, the service brings the movies to you. If you’ve bought digital movies on iTunes, Amazon, Vudu, Xfinity, Microsoft, FandangoNOW, or Google Play, you can now watch all of them on whichever your preferred service is.

If you recently received an email from UltraViolet that the company is closing and you’ll have to link your movies to another account by July 31, 2019, you might be wondering whether you can get these movies into your Movies Anywhere account. You can add your UltraViolet movies to Movies Anywhere, but you need a Vudu account to do so (I know, you have to sign up for one more account).

Step 1: Sign up for Vudu

Step 2: Log into UltraViolet

Step 3: Merge your UltraViolet account with your Vudu account

Step 4: Connect your Vudu account with Movies Anywhere

Step 1: Sign up for Vudu

If you don’t already have a Vudu account, you’ll have to get one in order to merge your UltraViolet movies into Movies Anywhere.

Navigate to Vudu.com and sign up. You don’t have to add a credit card during the setup process if you don’t want to. Just skip the step to complete the process.

Step 2: Log into UltraViolet

If it’s been a while since you used UltraViolet to watch a movie, you may have forgotten your username or password. Navigate to UltraViolet’s Homepage and make sure you can log in. If you’ve forgotten, follow the steps to reset your account information.

Step 3: Merge your UltraViolet account with your Vudu account

Once you’re ready, it’s time to connect your UltraViolet account with your Vudu account so you can merge the movies from the former to the latter.

Navigate to Vudu.com from your web browser.

Log in with your Vudu account credentials if you haven’t already.

Click on your Profile Name in the upper left corner of the website.

Click on UltraViolet.

Click on the Already have Ultraviolet? link.

Click on Connect.

Click on OK when finished.

Step 4: Connect your Vudu account with Movies Anywhere

If you haven’t already connected your Vudu account with Movies Anywhere, make sure you do so or you won’t see your UltraViolet movies on your list.

All supported movies will populate across all of your connected digital retailer services; iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, and Vudu.

Remember, not all movie distribution companies have signed on with Disney for Movies Anywhere. For example, Paramount Pictures does not support Movies Anywhere. So even if you bought a Paramount Pictures movie on iTunes or on Amazon, it won’t appear across all of your supported digital retail services.
